Benny Blanco on Spiders, Seafood Boils & Selena Gomez

We're back in LA for Nova’s Red Room Global Tour, and this one’s all about food, funnel-webs and fiery love! We sat down with hitmaker Benny Blanco, who opened up about making his new album with fiancée Selena Gomez—yes, they work together and kiss at the end of each session! 💋 He shared how they kept things drama-free (except for a bird feud), why communication is the key to their creative relationship, and how he’s planning the ultimate seafood boil date night. Plus, we finally get to the bottom of why Benny refuses to fly (hint: he literally takes boats across the Atlantic), what he really thinks about Australia’s deadly wildlife, and why we’ll probably never convince him to visit. And yes—he’s got thoughts on Joel’s fiancée, redback spiders, Aussie cafés, and even toe maintenance. This ep has everything.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
